My BF has gained weight since I moved in with him. He says it's all my fault! Please note he does the cooking :thumbs up and he serves up the man-sized plates. I think it's just that he cooks more often now, and he drinks more wine... Oh yeah and he doesn't get all that exercise cleaning the house anymore.

Definitely true. But there are a lot of contributing factors. When you're single, you tend to exercise more as well because you have more time alone to do so. You also don't eat as much when you are alone because you don't eat just because somebody else is eating something tasty right beside you. Also, I think a lot of the time single people have more anxiety, which is an energy expense. Just my thoughts on the subject.

Reminds me of the classic sociology study by Durkheim - (Think back to your intro soc class) -Le Suicide. In the process os studying suicide, Durkheum concluded that single women live longer than men, married men longer than single men. I guess this study confirms Durkeim, lol

And tho I hate anecdotal stuff, my own experience is that women handle pain much better. Men can be really big babies - maybe b/c they are not used to once a month thing or giving birth. But there is something there. Pediatric pain - which I DO study scientfically - is quite different tho. So maybe the gender differences in pain are a hormonal thing?

After 23 years of marriage I have to agree......... But we have both put on weight but I put on more, then again I had 2 kids and he didn't. I'm still trying to lose that baby fat even though my kids are 16 and 18, lol.

Coming from somebody who has been married 40yrs this december,has had 3 kids...and still looks at hubbie as her best friend etc...
No,I am not overweight,neither is hubby...maybe a little rounder around the belly :p
Obesity is a huge problem in North America..
We are leaving for South Carolina this week and boy are there ever many obese people there,mostly female!
I think it has something to do with all the all-you-can-eat restaurants,those people can eat :D but are they ever nice,with their southern drawl...love it!

When I first met my hubby I had a good ten pounds on him. Now hes got about 15 pounds on me. :D I think the ways of his youth are catching up on him. So he might think its the opposite.
